It's hard to read and write the news about Google's Toolbar 6 for Internet Explorer without thinking of how it must result from their official position siding with the EU against Microsoft's bundling of IE with Windows.

Interestingly enough, yesterday's Safari browser update offers similar personalized funcationality.
